Really enjoying Dead Boss on BBC3, best new comedy I've seen for ages...

 

[knock]

^ Agreed. Also very much liked Pulling and Magda in Lead Balloon. Does that need explained?

 

[Mailmonkey]

No, agreed :D

 

[parttime crackhead]

Are you saying that I'll like Dead Boss if I liked Pulling & Lead Balloon?


I didn't like either. Probably give it a miss.

 

[knock]

Depends why you didn't like them!

Pulling is written by Sharon Horgan and Dennis Kelly.

Dead Boss stars Sharon Horgan (amongst others) and is written by her and Holly Walsh. I think Horgan is a great comedy actress and probably a good writer too.

Anna Crilly was in the last episode, she played Magda in Lead Balloon, she was probably my favourite character. Another great comedy actress. Her appearance was just a one-off though, and in any case it's not similar to Lead Balloon.

And not all that similar to Pulling either, but if you like Sharon Horgan you'd probably enjoy it.


Not sure how someone can not like Pulling though!

I'm half tempted to not watch a single ep til the end, then go to Amsterdam and watch the entire thing back to back in an adult nappy.

 

[Danny Weed]

Yeah I am waiting until the end to watch them, just done that with game of thrones and it was worth the wait.

[Treacle]

I've watched the first few episodes of Breaking Bad, but then haven't watched any more. Me and the missus are going to power-watch the lot, like we did with Dexter. That's back in a few months, also.

Just finished BB s05e01, watched it in HD. The camera work is amazing, scenes are beautiful! Watch in HD if you can.

Yeah I was going to wait but googled it and loads of good HD links came up instantley so gave it a shot, going to be annoying waiting a week per episode now though. They are doing 8 this year and 8 next year.
